For further information visit the .Full-Time, Fixed-Term (24 months)Applications are invited for the post of a Knowledge Transfer Partnership (KTP) Associate in the Department of Computer Science. The project is funded by Innovate UK and DDM Health Ltd. DDM Health specialises in digital therapeutics and virtual care services with a focus on cardiometabolic health leveraging advanced technology to manage and prevent chronic conditions. This KTP project builds the collaboration between DDM Health Ltd., Coventry, and Department of Computer Science and Department of Biological Sciences, Royal Holloway, University of London.The project aims to develop an innovative AI-driven tool for diabetes and prediabetes detection using voice inputs. Currently, Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is often diagnosed 5-7 years after symptom onset, leading to severe complications like blindness, kidney failure, heart attacks, stroke, and limb amputation. About 50% of T2D patients develop diabetic neuropathy, which can damage nerves throughout the body, including those controlling the vocal cords, leading to issues like vocal fold paralysis, hoarseness, or vocal strain. This partnership aims to develop novel machine learning solutions that detect Type 2 diabetes and prediabetes by analysing voice patterns, providing a non-invasive and innovative method for early diagnosis. Specifically, this project will develop novel deep learning algorithms, and audio and vision transformers with various attention mechanisms, to identify early warnings and prediabetes/diabetes conditions. Weakly supervised and zero/few-shot learning methods will also be exploited to classify unseen conditions without or with limited training samples, in order to tackle data sparsity issues.Applicants should have the equivalent of a PhD/MSc degree from Computer Science with research expertise in machine learning, deep learning, audio/image/video classification, attention mechanisms, zero/few shot learning, and evolutionary algorithms. The Associate should have proficient programming skills in Python, MATLAB, and C++/Java. He/she should have good oral communication and academic writing skills.
